So I think it's becoming well known around the office that I'll do anything for a free little morsel of a treat. Today a total stranger offered me a large piece of carrot cake with cream cheese frosting, and I didn't want to be rude and refuse, so I ate it in 3 seconds. Delicious. I love this new reputation.

Ever notice how hard it is to keep your energy up through the afternoon without a Pepsi? I feel like a tired beast right now, but I'm trying to wean myself from the goodness of that brown liquid. Not so much because it is in the "gray area" for Mormon consumption, but more because I don't think I should be reliant on any substance. If I can go without it, I prove to myself it isn't in control of me. Rather I control it. Bow down to me you dark master.

I have a friend who quit smoking with the same rational. I so remember him, fire in his eye (though not in his hand) stating with definitive finality, "I will dominate! I will not be dominated. An inanimate object will NOT have power over me." He feels the same way about hackey-sack and ultimate frisbee, too -- dominate or go home. And he does, because he's a badass that way.

And you, dearie, made my day today. Thank you for the link. Keep on keepin' on yourself. Be well and glorious as you were born to be.

About Me

I graduated from BYU with a degree in Mechanical Engineering in April of 2003, and moved out to Colorado to take a great job in the aerospace industry the following June.
On June 21, 2007 I married the man of my dreams, the ear doctor. I'm looking forward to starting our life together, and laughing a lot along the way.
The point of this blog is to be entertained. It is meant as nothing more than that...entertainment!
